CARE & CLEANING

WARNING

Do not press the lid release button

on the handle to open the lid during

operation. This may result in boiling

water splashing from the kettle. Pour

out all the hot water from the kettle

before opening the lid to reﬁ ll.

Always unplug the appliance from the power

outlet before cleaning.

REMOVABLE FILTER

The kettle features a removable mesh ﬁ lter

to remove scale deposits for cleaner water.

To remove the scale deposits from the ﬁ lter,

open the lid and slide the ﬁ lter up and out of

the kettle.

The ﬁ lter can be cleaned by running under

hot water and rubbing with a cleaning cloth

or brush. To replace ﬁ lter, simply slide the

ﬁ lter down into the slot behind the spout of

the kettle and push back into position.

NOTE

The ﬁ lter could become damaged

with time. Please check regularly and

replace if found damaged.

NOTE

The concealed element in the base of

the kettle is made from high quality

stainless steel. Any brown stains

appearing are the result of mineral

deposits and are not rust.

NOTE

To operate correctly, the kettle should

always be used with the scale ﬁ lter

ﬁ rmly in place.

REMOVAL OF MINERAL DEPOSITS

Mineral deposits in tap water may cause the

kettle interior and water windows to discolor

over time. This may be removed by using a

proprietary kettle descaler which is available

from most leading supermarkets, department

and hardware stores.

Alternatively:

1. Fill the kettle until two-thirds full with 1

p

art vin

egar and 2 parts water. Boil and

allow to stand overnight.

2. Empty the solution from the kettle. Fill

th

e k

ettle with clean water, bring to boil

and discard the water. Repeat and the

kettle will be ready for use.

WARNING

Never immerse the kettle base, switch

area, power base, power cord or power

plug in water, or allow moisture to

come into contact with these parts.

WARNING

Do not remove the diffuser ring located

on the base inside the kettle.

TO CLEAN THE EXTERIOR

The outside of the kettle may be wiped over

with a damp cloth and polished with a soft

dry cloth.

NOTE

Do not use chemicals, alkaline

cleaning agents, steel wool or abrasive

cleaners to clean the inside or outside

of the kettle. Use a mild cleaning

agent with a soft damp cloth.

STORAGE

Ensure the kettle is switched off, clean and

dry before storing. Ensure the lid is closed

and locked securely into place. Wrap the

power cord around the cord storage under

the power base. Stand the kettle upright on

the power base. Do not store anything on top.
